The music festivals Coachella and Stagecoach plan on a post-pandemic return in April 2022.
"We look forward to being in the desert next April with all of our friends," festival founder and Goldenvoice president and chief executiveToday, festival organizers Goldenvoice announced that both Coachella and Stagecoach are returning next spring, with the first weekend of Coachella scheduled April 15-17, the second weekend scheduled for April 22-24, and Stagecoach scheduled to take place April 29-May 1.
Coachella was first pushed March 9, 2020 to October 2020, only to be canceled for the year when it became clear the COVID-19 pandemic was showing no signs of slowing down. Plans to host the festival in April 2021 were scrubbed during the early weeks of January, without a new date being set. While Goldenvoice officials considered trying to bring back the festival in October 2021,reported in March that the plan was no longer on the table and that the festival would not return until 2022.
Coachella was first launched in October 1999 and lost so much money, organizers were almost bankrupted. The second Coachella took place in April 2001 and it has been staged in April a total of 18 times, making it the unofficial kickoff event for the contemporary music festival world. Only two major national events — South by Southwest in Austin, Texas and the EDM-focused Ultra in Miami — take place before Coachella. Stagecoach was launched in 2014.
Once those tickets are sold, Goldenvoice announces the lineup for the festival in January and puts its general admission and VIP ticket packages on sale for the April event.
